Ford Recalls Vehicles

Friday, August 5, 2016

Ford is recalling about 830,000 vehicles in the U-S and Mexico because parts in the side door latches can break and the doors can open while the vehicles are moving. The recall covers certain 2013 to 2015 Ford Escape SUVs and C-Max cars, and 2012 to 2015 Focus cars. Also included are 2014 to 2016 Ford Transit Connect vans, and Ford Mustang sports cars and Lincoln MKC SUVs from 2015. Ford says a faulty spring part can break, stopping the doors from latching. The company says the rate of problems is higher in states with high temperatures and sunlight exposure. The company says it knows of one crash and one injury that could have been caused by the problem.
